Hello.
I love everything about UI design – the detail, the craft and the colour. I get satisfaction out of simplifying elements to their necessary basics, while exploring unique ways to differentiate each individual project.
I also love everything about UX – the research, the thinking and the measurable outcome. At my core I’m an investigator, a problem solver and a communicator, informing my designs in collaboration with UXers and content strategists. Some of my best work has come from working as part of a team, marching towards a commonly held vision, unearthing user pain points and solving problems through discovery, design thinking and technology.

What drives me is going to bed each night knowing I’ve been part of creating something that's made a difference.
I'm originally from Belgium and visit family as often as I can. I also spent 5 years in Kenya and 25 years in Canada. Below you will find a summary of my work experience and some clients I’ve worked with, both in Australia and internationally.
